Everyone I know in AI has gotten busier. Why? Jensen explained it last week. When he asks for a project to be done, it used to take his team a week to do it. Now it takes 15 minutes. So iteration cycle has greatly sped up. In other words, we don't do the same just because we

AI Automation Economics: Job Displacement vs Hiring Dynamics
By
–
After a brief hiatus, new post with @soumitrashukla9: "How Will AI-driven Automation Actually Affect Jobs? The economics of AI exposure and job displacement" There has been a lot of discussion in the media, X, substack, etc about AI driven displacement. We felt like it'd be worth working out the actual economics of when AI automation will actually lead to displacement, versus the exact opposite (more hiring, higher wages). A short summary🧵: AI "exposure" measures are not meant to predict displacement or job automation. Exposure can lead a job loss, or it can lead to more hiring and higher wages. It all depends on how 1) automated tasks interact with non-automated tasks (to what extent they're complements), 2) how consumer demand in that sector responds to prices (elasticity of consumer demand), and 3) the dimensionality of the job (the number of tasks a job has). One conclusion: we should be less worried about consultants and more worried about truckers and warehouse workers than we currently are. Link: substack.com/home/post/p-191…

2026 Reflections: Building at Scale, Learning, and Enterprise Growth
By

Constant Learning is the One thing I witnessed working in YAAS, the people the culture around is Nahi ata to seekho and make sure you learn and do it well, solve problems don't rant, and keep improving. Varun Mayya (@waitin4agi_) 2026: – being an individual creator – separately running 70+ channels @ 1Bn+ views a month – running Aeos Labs (enterprise AI services) – running YAAS (enterprise content services) – 100+ enterprise clients across everything incl. Coca Cola, Cleartrip, Zoho, etc etc. – making a video game (UE5, C++) – 500+ people bootstrapped, green PnL despite *lots* of experimental spend what I enjoyed most: – hanging out with the people who are in this journey with me + board game nights (Dune Imperium Uprising) – spending time mentoring new talent and finding prodigy level talent from our large follower base (our moat imo) – running non commercial experiments with new tech. We shipped 10+ unique projects and demos last year purely to learn and improve our craft of content + tech. – teaching as much as I know before I run out of steam – graduating from mostly consumer products to enterprise contracts What I could’ve done better: – taken better care of health – people tend to make too many snap judgements about anything at scale but keeping Aeos stealth too long was a conscious choice – could’ve told the story a bit sooner – could’ve expanded a bit sooner (we delayed decisions like expanding office space because of fear of things maybe going wrong) – started internal management training sooner (leaders are everything at an org like us) – worked with large enterprises much sooner (rather than with startups). I think I significantly underestimated enterprise revenue in India. — https://nitter.net/waitin4agi_/status/2036078191069278424#m
